United States Outlasts International Team for 12th Presidents Cup Win
Another one goes to Team USA! For the 12th time in 14 events, the United States defeated an international group of challengers in the bi-annual Presidents Cup at Quail Hollow. The U.S. held an 11-7 advantage heading into the singles matches on Sunday. The international squad gave it their all and made things interesting, but close wins by Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay, Jordan Spieth, and Collin Morikawa kept the challengers at bay. Spieth was perfect in the event (5-0) to lead the charge for Team USA.
Final Score
USA: 17.5
International: 12.5
